Chicago: customers are advised to allow extra travel time

Kelsey, it's the Grinderman record, which is supposedly Nick Cave's new rock band but is really just him and most of the Bad Seeds playing more noisily than they usually do. It's good though.

also, I love "Depth Charge Ethel"

yeah, kels, Grinderman is Nick Cave's new band, and it's fairly off the hook.

ZITS ZITS ZITS

ooh. thanks! i'm sure leaf knows about it already but he's the nick cave head in the family.

HI AMANDA!!!!

Hi Kelsey. I am back from Wisconsin, back from the post office and back from the grocery store.

I'm back.

Back to school next week too. Sigh.

I am so glad you are back!

I'm so glad you're ok! I called my mom to find out if my aunt (in twin cities) is ok and she was like, "why would i call her? i'm sure she's ok." WHA?

I left JUST enough time to get to O'Hare on the Blue Line, btw.

I'm glad I'm okay too! It was literally because I was making lasagna last night that I opted to not run the errand that would have taken me over the bridge.

losing my mind w/ this job. LOSING MY MIND
i know i ask for this semi-regularly but if anyone sees any job openings/opportunities tossed around, feel free to throw them my way

Lasagna saves lives.

Classifieds provide jobs.

A few open positions here:

Editorial Assistant, American Journal of Sociology
BiblioVault Operations Assistant (entry-level techy position)
Graphics Specialist (book jacket design, I think)
Production Controller, General Journals Production (sort of what I do but for other Journals)
Promotions/Marketing Assistant

What do you do?

La Lechera - just tellin' it like it is.

Speaking of classes a few posts ago, I am signing up for two! One is a sewing class & the other is the sound art class I mentioned a couple of days ago.

xpost Basically, I coordinate peer review and some production activities for 4 astronomy and astrophysics journals. The position above is for several of the smaller journals, I'm pretty sure. Probably some sociology/ethics/social sciences stuff.

I was reading two things at once and thought I saw the headline Britney Collapses In Minneapolis.

I know what you do! What does deej?

Ha! That, I do not know.

I'd love to Sociology EA job, but I'm a no-go on the degree. Was an independent contractor for McGraw-Hill in Higher Ed Psych and intern occasionally for Oxford University Press for communications and media studies conferences but I think I'm pretty stuck for most EA work until I'm finally able to go back for that degree. Lame.

Who does Deej?

Wait. What?

debbbie does deej

Deej does Dallas.

I'm about to call up my new "mentee". :>

"I do Dallas"

lolololol

Malibu S. Ted Esq.

i'm guessing that guy did not go to college

Candace today:

Sweet vid!

thank heaven for little girls

even if they sometimes grow up to be totally crackers evangelicals

I blame Kirk.

she is evangelical?!

OH YEAH jesus made her pretty!

American Gladiators was basically umissable.

she is evangelical?!

big time. Her big brother is Kirk Cameron, so... there's the math.

I didn't know he was. All I know of KC is that my cousin had a huge crush on him back in the day & bought a copy of Bop or Teen Beat or whatever b/c it had a poster of him in it.

LEFT BEHIND

Oh man she married Pavel Bure's brother

just to amuse myself, I'm going to imagine that Candace has to keep up Christian appearances for Kirk and the family, but she has this whole other secret life that involves drugs and swinging and leather.

ATTENTION, ATTENTION: JAYMC AND ANYONE ELSE WHO IS INTERESTED: LET'S GO TO BIG CHICKS THIS EVENING AROUND 7:15-7:30 FOR BEER AND AMAZING HUMMUS PLATE!!!!!!!! CALL ME

reckless just bought EVERYTHING i brought in (because i'm down to selling the good stuff now) so i've got some $$$ which i should probably put away but instead will be blowing at h0liday club this evening. i've been promised that their isn't a private party going on in the back room this week.

there isn't. heat stroke, sorry.

I'm in an Argo Tea doing some work (not on Broadway), and the staff disappeared and now it really smells like ganja in here.

Have you guys seen Once? It's really good.

Yell out "hey dudes don't bogart that shit"

I want to see that. I watched Dirty Pretty Things tonight, liked it a lot.

^Nick

because I'm really anal about time

it's about time you were anal!

ignore me. I don't even know what that means.

http://www.scifilm.org/tv/tvgraphics/batman-anim-clockking.jpg

"I'm really anal about...time."

So sleepy.

SO FUCKING SLEEPY!!!

You seem pretty angry about it.

And, you know, excited.

I think I'm going to get pwned in high school trivia tonight.

I think I'm getting pwned in a coast-to-coast break up for no reason that I can apprehend. Very confusing.

http://www.c4vct.com/kym/sg/pilots/pilot2a.jpg

?!

Kind of like that, yes.

"high school trivia"?

so sweeeeepy ;__;

hey! question!

How?

How do I tab BACKWARDS through fields in a document?

shift tab

I didn't know that myself. Hm.

aw, Laurel. that sounds sad.

Thanks. Muy helpful.

Jaymc, it's just normal bar trivia except the theme is stuff you learned in high school (I think I mentioned our team is the "McKinley High N0rsemen").

Shift + tab is key.

I thought it was going to be like, match the high school with the TV show:

1. Bayside
2. Capeside
3. Harbor

a. Dawson's Creek
b. Saved by the Bell
c. The OC

If it were all questions like that, I might do okay.

Sounds like "Are You Smarter than A High School Student"

I am almost positive that I am not as smart as I was in high school.

But luckily there will not be any real high school students there who have thought about this stuff recently, just us 20 - 30 something slackers.

xpost

People, places, science, odds and ends, and things you should've learned in school.

That's one Madison-y thing I've never done, is go to a taping of that show.

Now this seems like quality theater to me.

Studying for the GRE has made it painfully obvious that I'm not as smart as I was in high school. I used to be awesome at math, now I am miserable.

Hi. Could someone please start a new Chi thread? I want to start fresh. This one is loooonnnggg.

Nick, stop being silly. You just need to rememorize the formulas.
